MemeToad - for your on-the-go meme needs

This is going to make me sound old... but I didn't really get memes at first. I never really was a 4chan or reddit reader/user, so the only memes I'd come up against were the pretty darn funny ones. But It took me a while before I saw how really funny they can be and all their practical uses. I enjoy them a lot more now, but I really haven't gotten into making / applying them myself ...

... well, that's about to change with MemeToad, developed by a fellow Canadian +Mark Mruss.
MemeToad is a simple meme generator for your device. Pre-loaded with 140 memes already, you just select your scenario and type in your phrases.

Straight forward enough that even an old fogey like me can get it. (And you gotta love the screen shots Mark uses in the Play Store's description... guy's got a good sense of humour)

Plus, there's an option to even use your camera / gallery to use your own photos (keep in mind that they'll be just strictly that photo and not a cut out piece and pasted onto a glorious coloured background... we'll leave that to Photoshop).

Lots of memes... I'm not even sure I can name what each scenario they're supposed to be for!

Making them is pretty simple and straight forward... line 1 text, line 2 text. Save it to your gallery, or share straight form the app. You can even change the font (I changed the above examples to Roboto, rather than IMPACT... I just like Roboto) and the colour of the font (if it's hard to read in that image).

The text will automatically resize depending on how much you write, so no worrying about trying to figure out what size works and doesn't etc... less thinking, more humour.

The above 2 are probably examples of why I don't make my own in the first place, but with MemeToad it gives me the tools to dip my toes in the water and get going and improve my craft.

There's the free version (which you see me using above) which has ads, but for $1.50 you can have the ad free version. Why not help a Canuck developer out and buy it. I'm going to try to ensure I perfect my internetz-humour.

We've discussed several times the need to sometimes take our online activity away from our phone (which is funny, how it wasn't that long ago we were talking about moving our internet activities from desktop to 'mobile').

As much as we do a lot on the phone, there are some things we just need to sit at an actual keyboard and get some work done. We have tablets that try to act like laptops and not quite laptops trying to act like tablets...

Let's look at an actual laptop. We reviewed the Vivobook recently, but that was an actual Windows laptop, and remember, we here at Android Coliseum are more focused on Android / Google related, so let's look at the Chromebook variant of the Vivobook.

I'm calling the C423N the Vivobook variant in Chromebook style because it also has the 'NanoEdge' display (slim bezels).

I've come to the realization I'm an anomaly. I have cables usually just about anywhere I go. My desk, my car, my bag, several desks/coffee tables in my house ... and further to that I tend to have a selection of some sort of power bank near me.
Typically, if someone around me is making motions that their battery is low I have it covered for them.
Apparently, that may not be the case for some people.

So, I ask you - do you share charging options with your friends?
Huawei's new Mate 20 Pro has a huge 4200mAh battery and has the option to share that juice with a friend - even doing so wirelessly! Pretty cool.
Would you do that?
Huawei Canada conducted a survey and found that 70% said that having a battery that lasts for an entire day is important.

Reading books is not something that's on my favorite thing to do list, but having my Android device read it out to me really draws me in. To make things even more interesting, I'm going to show you how to try a different voice when having your device read your book for you.
